Mary Cassatt (1844–1926) was a bold modernist pioneer: a fiercely professional artist, a committed member of the French Impressionist movement, an aesthetically radical painter, pastelist, and printmaker. Mary Cassatt at Work delves into the artist’s processes and materials, exploring the daring, experimental methods she used to produce her celebrated images of women and children. For more information about the exhibition and to purchase tickets, please visit famsf.org.
Highlighting Cassatt’s attention to women’s roles in the making of modern life, this official exhibition catalogue connects her recurring subjects and rigorous techniques to her own understanding of her status as a professional artist. Rather than inspiration, genius, or sentiment, it was intense effort that Cassatt most identified with in her processes of pastel drawing, intaglio printmaking, and oil painting, which resulted in an ever-evolving style that left the labors of art-making visible. Drawing on previously unpublished letters, Cassatt family correspondence, and groundbreaking insights from technical examination of her works, Mary Cassatt at Work places the artist’s carefully constructed professional identity within the wider social contexts of Parisian modernity. Hardcover, 280 pages.
